John Proctor avoids going to Salem primarily due to his disdain for the hypocrisy and corruption he perceives in the court and the witch trials. He feels guilty about his affair with Abigail Williams and fears that his reputation will be further tarnished if he involves himself in the chaos. Additionally, Proctor is grappling with his own moral dilemmas and struggles to reconcile his actions with his principles, leading him to withdraw from the community's turmoil.
